How an Air Conditioner Works

The truth is most of us don’t think about how our air conditioner works—as long as it’s pumping out cool air in August. However, understanding the parts of your air conditioner, including where they’re located and what they do, comes in handy if the appliance does break down. You don’t need to go back to school to learn the finer points of heating and cooling. Just keep in mind that all air conditioners, whether they are window units or central air systems, function on the same basic principle of refrigeration. At its simplest, air conditioners suck in warm air, filter and turn it into cool air, and return it back to the room. How it makes that change from warm to cool is slightly more involved.
Essential to air conditioning is Freon, a chemical that converts quickly from a gas to a liquid and back to a gas. Whenever the conversion is made, heat is transferred.

The whole process starts with the compressor, which is located outside your house. Freon reaches the compressor in the form of a cool, low-pressure gas. The compressor compresses the gas, which causes it to turn into a hot, high-pressure gas.

That high temperature gas heads via copper tubing to the compressor, a metal box or sphere with fins that’s also located outside your home. The condenser’s job is to strip the gas of heat; its fins help distribute the heat quickly into the surrounding air.

Without its heat, the gas becomesa cool liquid, which is sent through a very narrow hole into the evaporator. The evaporator is located inside your home either inside the air-handling unit or furnace. As the Freon moves through the evaporator, it loses pressure and turns back into a gas, which picks up heat from the air around it. The evaporator has metal fins, which help suck in warm air and deliver cool air that’s been stripped of its heat back into the room.

By the time Freon leaves the evaporator, it is once again a cool and low-pressure gas, which re-starts the refrigeration cycle again. This cycle continues until the thermostat senses that the temperature in the room has dropped to your desired coolness.

Houston, Texas is located in the heart of Texas and with the hot and humid summer temperatures a properly running air conditioner is critical. It is a subtropical climate with temperatures in the summer averaging in the mid 90’s. With temperatures reaching such extremes having a home or business that remains cool is important and it is clear to see the importance of a proper running air conditioner.

While the City of Houston was rated as the coolest city by Forbes they did not mean temperature wise. With high temperatures and lots of people the need for qualified Air Conditioning Service companies to maintain, service and overhaul systems is critical to the comfort and safety of those living in the area.
